My very own waterfall

From time to time

You forget the world around you

All you feel is nothing

your mind is empty

Your heart is calm

Nothing matters

You feel hypnotised

The river you just created

That lets the red anxiety flow

That leaves you with a feeling

Of numbness

The river is getting deeper

You are getting calmer

You do it over and over

Even though you know

It will be even worse very very soon

You still have now

You still have this

For once you feel ok

And you wonder

Maybe it's ok

To create your own waterfall

I'm sorry if this triggers anyone. Please be safe. Take care. Remember; those who don't believe in magic will never find it.
